Ever since my tights, stockings but no leggings party, I discovered my new found obsession with fashion tights.
They look stylish, keep you warm when bearing your legs in the winter and along with leggings, are the best go to item for those days you can’t bring yourself to wear jeans.

Toronto LG Fashion Week – Still is what it was

She Stays.
 
Yes, even after a, what some would say, rather highly unprofessional “drunken rant” for her opening speech during the most recent Toronto L’oreal Fashion Week, Robin Kay will remain the President of the FDCC.

Dear Santa…

I am happy to say that I have been GOOD this year and majorly curbed my shopaholic tendencies. I was hoping maybe you could, ever so generously, aid to my cause by putting any of the following underneath my Christmas tree…

MO needs clothes – Designer doggie attire

This is my dog Mo (short for Mocha), he is the absolute cutest, most adorable Shitzu Poodle you will ever meet.

Speaking of interns and internships…

 

Kanye West had recently openly expressed that he wanted to put his music career on hold to intern for Louis Vuitton or Raf Simons.
